About this property

Blue Armadillo - Cozy Country Cabin Close to Downtown Wimberley

Welcome to our little piece of heaven in the heart of the hill country. Blue Armadillo is a 2 bedroom secluded; rustic-chic adobe cabin located 2.5 miles from the Wimberley downtown square.

Kick back in the spacious living area in a rocker next to the fireplace or snuggle up on the couch with popcorn and your favorite movie. The open layout makes everyone feel included in the conversation whether they are preparing meals in the kitchen, eating in the dining room, or relaxing in the living area. Both bedrooms are located right off the living area. Both bedrooms have a queen sized bed. Enjoy easy access to tons of local activities including Blue Hole Regional Park, Wimberley Zip Line, Village Center, and the Texas Wine Trail.

Blue Armadillo is an excellent lodging choice for adults seeking a relaxing Hill Country experience. However there are a few aspects of the property that have been deemed unsafe for young children by the insurance company. All guests participating in the reservation are required to be at least 12 years of age or older.

SELF CHECK-IN REQUIREMENTS: All reservations will be required to sign a rental agreement and provide Hills of Texas Lodging with a valid credit card to be placed on file for their stay. In lieu of charging a damage deposit or non-refundable damage waiver, a temporary hold will be placed on a credit card upon arrival for incidentals (just like they do at hotels). We are basically just verifying with your financial institution that sufficient funds are available in the event they were needed to cover property damage(s). If there are no property damages, the card will not be charged.

Everything was wonderful, but the living room furniture was uncomfortable and the kitchen supplies were limited (no colander, only one dishwasher pod, etc. ).

Blue Armadillo Retreat!

The Blue Armadiilo was a very relaxing, very awesome decorated two bedroom resort with lovely amenities! I spoke with the owner and she was very helpful to suggest places to visit. I would highly recommend this place to relax and to be close to Wimberly.

Private getaway

We visit the Wimberley every now and then. This place was perfect since it was just outside of town and it provided us with privacy and scenery. It wasn't much of an issue for us but the one negative was hearing some highway noise nearby. Other than that we truly enjoyed our stay here.

We had such a great time away at this property. Close to local wineries. You’re nestled in the countryside but easy access to the main roads and into town. Highly recommend! Great price and value!

Delightful & cozy.

Wonderful house & property. This was my first Christmas without my dad and I wanted to make it special for my mom. It was! The Blue Armadillo is a delightful house. Very well appointed. We stayed during Christmas & they even had it decorated for Christmas. The layout is great with each bedroom on either side of the living room. The bathroom is very large. As well as the living & kitchen areas. Loved it and will definitely be back.

Exactly what we needed: rest and relaxation at The Blue Armadillo.

We were looking for a weekend getaway that wasn’t too far of a drive from Austin, but still felt like a vacation; The Blue Armadillo was the perfect escape. The villa itself was perfectly suited to our needs and we loved grilling in the evenings and watching the sunset. Sharon was great and shared some useful restaurant & water tips. We’re already checking our calendars to see when we can get back to The Blue Armadillo!

This was such a great place to lay our heads! Perfect amount of space for our small group, located close to multiple hot spots around town, and immaculately clean. Everything was very easy and private. Overall, we had a great stay and will be keeping them in mind for our next vacation.

Well appointed and extra clean

We had a very comfortable Easter weekend stay. So close to Wimberley but private. A real Hill Country experience! Bluebonnets and wildflowers were in full bloom everywhere we drove. We were visiting our son and daughter in love from Dripping Springs and this was just perfect. We certainly enjoyed the outside space. Will return!

We had a great weekend at Blue Armadillo

Cute and charming cabin, comfortable and with plenty of room for my friends and I. Wished it had an outdoor fire pit, but we made good use of the grill. We were very impressed that it was fully stocked with plenty of cups, dishes, cooking pans, etc, everything we needed. The close proximity to Wimberley was great!!

Nice house but terrible sewage problem.

The house was very nice but there was a horrible smell as we were sitting outside and when walked around the house and saw raw sewage in the back of the house. Unfortunately we did not find this out until Saturday afternoon or we would have had to leave early. Please let the owners know so that other's don't have to experience this.
